Description
This is a stoneware candle holder shaped as an open ring, painted all the way round in broad multicoloured stripes, with a short cylindrical socket on top for a single taper candle and a flat, round foot at the base. It stands 12cm tall and 10cm across, so it is a small, table-sized piece rather than a tall candlestick, and at 0.21KG it is light enough to move from shelf to table without a second thought. The open centre is the clever part: you see straight through the ring, so the holder reads as a bold outline rather than a solid block.
Its size suits the places where a candle is wanted close at hand: the middle of a dining table, a bedside table, a mantelpiece or a bookshelf. Because the socket sits at the top of the ring, a slim dinner candle rises well clear of the stripes, which gives plenty of height from a modest base. It makes a thoughtful small gift for anyone who likes a little colour about the house. On its own it holds its ground as a bright point of interest; grouped with plainer candle holders, it adds the touch of pattern that a quiet arrangement often lacks.
The whole piece is 100% stoneware, a dense, hard-fired ceramic that feels solid in the hand. The stripes run right around the ring, the surface has a glossy shine that catches the candlelight, and the flat foot gives it a level base on which to stand. The styling props shown are not included, so the candle is yours to choose. Our styling note: fit a single dinner candle in a shade picked from one of its stripes, then set the holder in front of a vase of fresh stems or a short stack of books, so the open ring frames whatever sits behind it.
